    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 25, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,628 views

    Sin marred and disfigured God's masterpiece. But the Bible is one long narrative of how God sought to restore that which was damaged. Has God completely restored His masterpiece now... or is that yet to happen?

    OPEN: One of Leonardo da Vinci’s most famous paintings was called “The Last Supper.” It was painted on the wall of the Sistine Chapel, and Da Vinci was sure that the unique painting style he used would create a masterpiece that would last forever. It didn’t quite work out that way. The painting ...read more

    God sends His prophet, Elijah, not to a wealthy household, not to a powerful leader, but to a poor, grieving Gentile widow.

     | 4,349 views

    The promise of physical protection for the most part is not so much ours in the church age but rather the focus of our protection is God’s spiritual protection against the enemy of our soul. This is the purpose of the Armour of God, God’s Protection System.

    God’s Protection System By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING: - My wife and I have a little puppy he is 8 months old; he doesn’t really bark too much but he will whine.

     | 3,497 views

    Stay alert and pray, so that you won't fall into temptation. Being alert enhances our prayers, as every enemy we identify pushes us to pray more fervently. Furthermore, being alert is a form of prayer. If we are truly alert, the act of watching itself becomes a prayer.

    In the Bible, Jesus instructs his disciples to "Watch and pray, so that you will not fall into temptation" (Matthew 26:41, NIV). This command holds great significance for believers today. By understanding the importance of watching and praying, we can overcome temptation and live a victorious ...read more

    Through the power of the resurrection, Jesus Christ has made available and afforded power: a power that overcomes us in death and a power that overwhelms us in life. There are some people that are living to die and others dying to live, the key lies in n

    Submission to God brings him closer to you as does resisting the influence of evil drives the Devil away. The result of learning these two disciplines is a closer relationship with God almighty and the enemy driven farther away.

    Unexpected Converts

    Grace. Those most people thought were least likely to become God’s people are the ones who come to Christ; while the ones often thought to be most likely became his enemies.

    Two of the surprises that we come across as we read the New Testament are the people who become close to Jesus, and the people who are alienated from Jesus. It is surprising because it is exactly the opposite of what we would expect to find. We would expect Jesus to be close to the religious folk ...read more

    In this Psalm I examine the Psalm writer’s attitude to the future as he faces old age and how he deals with his enemies. This is during Advent and has a little reflective flavor of the season in it.

    December 11, 2005 Psalm 71 What do you think about your future? Maybe you’re one of those people who’s done an overall road map of your life. Maybe in ten years you want to retire, or have your house paid off, or have enough money saved up to buy a car, or get married and have children. ...read more

    The battle is spiritual -- it is against the devil and, his hordes of demons, the powers of darkness and sin. We will all be tested -- everyone of us marked with the sign of the cross and confessing Jesus Christ as Lord are ENEMIES of the devil.

    One of my favorite movies is “The Godfather” by Mario Puzo. This movie, about a family involved in organized crime,contains some very powerful lessons about the twisted thinking of those whose lives are controlled by Satan. One memorable scene shows a meeting called to make peace after a war ...read more

    The purpose of this sermon is to motivate the HEARERS TO ARM THEIR HOMES WITH TRAINED PRAYER WARRIORS, THAT ARE PREPRARED TO pursue and engage their spiritual enemies (through God’s Word and Prayer) in order to take back their love ones AND POWs.

    “ BIG IDEA: PEOPLE OF FAITH SHOULD USE THEIR SPIRITUAL RESOURCES TO AFFECT THE OUTCOME OF WAR - LONG BEFORE IT AFFECTS THEM PERSONALLY.

    Praise the King who saves Psalm 95 Unlike some of the psalms, we know almost nothing about the author or the background of this one. It is in Book 4 of the Psalms, so it was probably not written by David. Perhaps it was written a few centuries later, during the time of Hezekiah, who made a ...read more
